I agree that there is nothing wrong with asking you not to take pix or post them on sites of other children, totally, but to completely ban you taking some footage of your childs play is a bit off. ]]> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 21:50:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=782227&title=no-school-pics#782227 <![CDATA[no school pics? : I see nothing wrong with only...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781553&title=no-school-pics#781553 Author: Bobbie

I see nothing wrong with only being allowed to take photos of your own kids or having to get permission to post photos of other people's children on a public/ social networking site.

My bets on the $$ spinner theory though ]]> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:55:25 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781553&title=no-school-pics#781553 <![CDATA[no school pics? : To say it&#039;s a paedophile...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781521&title=no-school-pics#781521 Author: tishy

To say it's a paedophile risk is crying 'wolf' IMHO and sends out the wrong message.

"We have a paedophile in the audience. Keep a close eye on your children"


To state that no photos can be taking due to internet and privacy issues is a valid reason however.

I've heard of this happening and believe in some areas it's becoming common.

Playing devil's advocate too, the fact is that if the photos are taken then it ultimately means that your child is likely to end up on the internet even though you yourself may choose not to post them there. Now, I choose not to post photos of my child on this website because it is so public - but if another of you came to his kindy play and took photos, you could post those pics with him in them right here in the photos thread. Or put them on Facebook and have no clue about privacy settings. Or Flickr, or Photobucket or a dozen and one other places that I had no say in.]]> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 13:05:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781504&title=no-school-pics#781504 <![CDATA[no school pics? : Yip have heard of it at a kindy...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781398&title=no-school-pics#781398 Author: HoneybunsMa

Yip have heard of it at a kindy here too. Godsons kindy your not allowed to take photos or videos without permission I think it was. I can understand that to a degree, yes you want the memories but other parents may not want pics circulating of their kid. Remember if it gets online there is no way of stopping other people getting it and what may be an innocent photo can become something else to someone.

Paedophiles don't neccessarily look at pics of kids without clothes on. Just an image of a child playing could do it for them

This is now very common among schools here in Auckland from my understanding. We had a friends child in a production rececently and no photos were allowed to be takern but they are doing a dvd for the parents. Surprisingly you have to pay for the DVD, WTF is that all about. It sounds like a money spinner to me!!]]> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 09:46:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781275&title=no-school-pics#781275 <![CDATA[no school pics? : Omg we just had to sign a similar...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781267&title=no-school-pics#781267 Author: fattartsrock

Omg we just had to sign a similar thing at pre school the other day, not so much about taking pix of other kids, but gettign parents permission and not sharing the pics of th ekids on facebook or emialing them round your contacts etc. A bit OTT, I can sort of get their drift, but man. PC gone mad.

and what if there was a man - or woman - taking pictures not of their child but someone elses and he then used those pictures for a less than wholesome reason... some people dont like strangers having pics of their kids...

Well I dont see what is stopping people taking photos in public places so i dont see how it is going to stop peadophiles...they'll just go elsewhere (sadly).

If I were you..I would take photos anyway, children (and parents) want these memories. ]]> Mon, 21 Sep 2009 08:53:23 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781216&title=no-school-pics#781216 <![CDATA[no school pics? : Sounds a bit strange, maybe there...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=28857&PID=781180&title=no-school-pics#781180 Author: My3Sons

I don't get that, how can taking photos of your kids be that kind of risk. I mean the photos are for yourselves aren't they?

I'm wonderingthe same as Kate - if they're going to sell photos themselves so are using it as a convienient excuse.

I have heard of that at swimming pools (which I also think is stupid) but at least there you can argue the kids are less dressed.

ETA: If they did it on the night I doubt they'd stop the performance for it plus if it were one or two they probably wouldn't know who was doing it to confiscate the memory card after (plus they could always take a spare blank memory card in case)

my nephew is in his first school production this week, but all parents have been informed that they can't take pictures....apparently because it is a paedophile risk.
